Rimba Resort...
Who wants to be here this weekend?! πππ
Our classroom is better than your classroom!
Hi-Tide divers have the best classroom ever!
This big clear break of sand in our house reef is the best place to practise skills, and we're pretty smug to call it our office!
Here's Barbara and Jake doing their Discover Scuba Diving skills with Soph :)
Jellyfish
- some can glow in the dark
- can clone themselves
- some are immortal
- donβt all have tentacles (like the ones we dived with in the video!)
- donβt have brains
- are eaten by turtles, but look deceivingly like plastic bags
Old, discarded fishing nets unintentionally catch fish, which die and rot stuck in the net, causing the net to be weighed down - crustaceans and other marine animals go to the net to eat the dead fish, releasing the weight and allowing it to float again - to catch more fish....
This vicious cycle is called ghost fishing
It is estimated that up to 30% of all fish are caught in ghost nets
Furthermore, the unused nets are destroying our coral reefs, destroying the habitat that all our wonderful sea life relies on!!
Here is Pippa, Bell and dad Iain alongside Adam recovering a net on one of their dives!
Shark puppies
Come and dive with us and play with our shark puppies that have taken resident under our boats!
Shark supper-time
It's fishy fact Wednesday, but this week we thought we'd treat you to a video of our resident Black Tip sharks doing their evening hunting under our boat!
Swim fish, SWIM!
Lima Besar
Hands up if you want to be here!
Snorkelling and dive trips go to this spot
Fish spotting!
How many species can you name in this awesome video that some divers took whilst visiting Rimba last weekend?\
We can spot Butterflyfish, Angelfish, Urchins and Snappers!!!
